Hello, first let me say that I love Drive Pool. Been using it on WHS 2011 for a long time now and works great. I just picked up a new Dell T20 Pentium G3220 last week for $140 shipped, put in 16gigs of ram and and moved over to Server 2012R2 with Essentials role. I've read that you should see a Drive Pool tab in the Essentials Dashboard but it never shows up, I can remote in and open up Drive Pool and everything is running fine. I did install Drive Pool and moved over all my stuff from the old server before I set up the Essentials role if that makes a difference, any advice would be great.
Hardware:
Dell T20 Pentium G3220
20GB DDR3
1 Crucial M4 128 SSD OS drive
1 Samsung HD204UI 2TB drive - drive pool
2 WD Red 3TB drive - drive pool
1 WD Blue 500G - Server OS backup drive
Thanks,
Scott Banks
